Registration No: DGF 719S Chassis No: 21331 MOT: ExemptUprated with wider wheels / tyres (9J front / 11J rear), various engine modifications and reshaped bodywork by supplying dealer Maranello Concessionaires to the special order of its first ownerThought to be unique among the 101 UK-supplied, RHD examplesReworked front and rear aluminium clamshells plus reprofiled B-to-C-post sections and enlarged NACA cooling ducts etcReputedly inspired by the factory sanctioned 512 BB Competizione cars which were campaigned by Charles Pozzi and NART at the 1978 Le Mans 24-hours Maintained by Vince Mezzulo throughout its life both during and after his time at Maranello ConcessionairesFinished in Rosso Chiaro with Black hide and carpets Enzo Ferrari’s reservations about putting a high-powered, mid-engined road car in the hands of his customers were well documented. The success of the Lamborghini Miura, Maserati Bora and De Tomaso Pantera etc, however, meant that by the early 1970s the buying public fully expected any ‘true’ supercar to have its engine positioned just behind the driver. Debuting at the 1973 Paris Salon, the Ferrari 365 GT4 BB was nominally faster than its front-engined ‘Daytona’ predecessor but also decidedly trickier to pilot on the limit. Based around a tubular steel chassis with monocoque centre section, the newcomer featured all-round independent double wishbone suspension, front / rear anti-roll bars, rack and pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes. Utilising the same ‘Flat 12’ architecture as the engines which powered Maranello’s victorious 312B and 312T Formula 1 cars, its 4.4-litre DOHC unit sat atop a five-speed transaxle with limited slip differential. Unveiled at the 1976 Paris Salon, the second Berlinetta Boxer – the 512 – shared the same striking silhouette as its forebear (penned by Leonardo Fioravanti of Pininfarina) albeit with a wider rear track to accommodate 9J alloy wheels (up from 7.5J). Other stability inducing measures included a front chin spoiler to counter high-speed lift, recalibrated suspension and broader powerband. Enlarged to almost 5 litres, the 12-cylinder powerplant (hence the model’s nomenclature) also gained a hydraulic clutch, dry-sump lubrication and useful torque boost. With some 340bhp / 331lbft on tap, the two-seater was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and 188mph. Aside from the reprofiled front, visual tweaks were limited to NACA cooling ducts ahead of both rear wheels and a switch from six to four taillights. The provision of a taller final drive ratio and standard fit air-conditioning meant that the 512 BB was more refined as well as being better handling and less peaky than the 365 GT4 BB. Hand-built, the younger machine achieved 929 sales between 1976 and 1981 of which only 101 were to UK, right-hand drive specification. According to information kindly supplied by Tony Willis of The Maranello Concessionaires Archive, this particular example – chassis 21331 – was commissioned from the factory on January 12th 1977 (under MCL Order Number 869). Finished in Rosso Chiaro with Nero leather upholstery and Red carpets, it was delivered to Maranello Concessionaires’ Egham premises a little over three months later. Heir to a successful family business, the first custodian – Alan Morello Esq. – took delivery on August 1st 1977. A serial Ferrari owner, he and his wife have retained possession of the 512 BB ever since. A Maranello Concessionaires employee at the time, Vince Mezzullo Esq. carried out the two-seater’s pre-delivery inspection before dropping it off at thirty-three year old Mr Morello’s Surrey estate. Stabled alongside eight other cars including a Panther J72 and ex-John Entwistle Cadillac limousine, chassis 21331 has been maintained by Mr Mezzullo (who bonded with Mr Morello over their shared Sicilian ancestry) all its life. Perhaps inspired by the be-winged, factory sanctioned Ferrari 512 BB Competizione cars with which Charles Pozzi and NART contested the 1978 Le Mans 24 hours, Mr Morello returned the two-seater to Maranello Concessionaires for a host of bespoke cosmetic and mechanical enhancements. Entrusted to inhouse bodywork craftsman Barry Merriman, its front and rear aluminium clamshells were reworked with blistered arches to house 9J front and 11J rear alloys (in place of the 7.5J and 9J originals). The area between the B- and C-posts on each side was reshaped too and adorned with deeper NACA ducts. The sidelights were repositioned within the front grille and treble vents added to both rear wings (presaging a similar motif on the later 288 GTO). The engine lid was de-badged and modified with a Competizione-style wing and transparent covers through which the quad Webers’ newly fitted trumpets could be admired. Re-jetted to compensate for the loss of their air filters / boxes, the carburettors were complemented by a special, twin-pipe sports exhaust. Having paid so much attention to the way that the engine inhaled and exhaled it is perhaps no wonder that Mr Morello never fitted a stereo to chassis 21331 (instead relying on the music played by the 12-cylinder mill behind his left ear). He had Britax multi-point harnesses installed too and the rev counter rotated within its housing so that the red line was uppermost in the driver’s view. While other Prancing Horses came and went (not to mention numerous other high performance machines), the 512 BB remained. A firm favourite of Mr Morello, the ‘Wide Body’ is now being offered for sale by his wife who believes it to have covered less than 6,000 miles from new. However, the loss of its maintenance records and her husband’s advanced dementia mean that she feels unable to warrant the mileage. As well as more routine servicing, Mr Mezzullo overhauled the cylinder heads (replacing the sodium filled valves in the process) and renewed the odometer. Initially granted the Surrey number plate ‘TPB 639S’ and subsequently sporting ‘PAM 303’ and ‘AM 51’, the Ferrari’s current V5C Document is for ‘DGF 719S’. Little used in recent years and overdue a cambelt service, the supercar has not been started whilst in our care. Company registered at different times but owned by the Morello family from new, this unique 512 BB is worthy of close inspection. Pleasingly, the chassis, engine and transaxle numbers quoted by Tony Willis all match those visible on the two-seater itself. Offered for sale with ‘suitcase’ tool case, For more information, please contact: John Markey john.markey@handh.co.uk 07943 584767

Registration No: FMW 567J Chassis No: J711L62080BW MOT: March 2026Supplied new to Nancy Sinatra and her husbandSpending the majority of its life in Hollywood, it was imported into the UK in 2018One previous UK owner and two in the USA, the odometer now displays c.29,000 milesSince 2018, the door cards, transmission tunnel and carpet have been re-trimmed and a retro-look Bluetooth radio fittedIntroduced in September 1968, the Jaguar XJ6 was an automotive exemplar of the saying that a whole can be greater than the sum of its parts. There was nothing radically new about the model's four-door monocoque bodyshell, all-round independent suspension, power assisted rack and pinion steering or four-wheel disc brakes and yet it effectively moved the goal posts of luxury car design. Another of Sir William Lyons' stylistic masterpieces, its bluff radiator grille, slim-pillared glasshouse, pronounced belt line and quad headlights gave presence aplenty. Powered by a choice of 4.2 litre or 2.8 litre straight-six XK engines allied to either four-speed manual plus overdrive or automatic transmission, the XJ6 was a strong performer (though, the smaller-engined variant felt somewhat less powerful than its 1.4 litre deficit suggested). Belying the saloon's exterior dimensions, the cabin felt reassuringly cocooning thanks in part to a generous transmission tunnel. First owned by Nancy Sinatra and her husband, the lady in question rising to fame not only as the daughter of ‘Ol Blue Eyes’ but also as the singer of ‘These Boots Are Made for Walkin’, this elegant XJ6 S1 remained in their possession until 1975 during which time the legendary George Barris apparently customised it with a Light Green Metallic paint job and S2 chrome wheels. Purchased by second keeper Stewart Annand from Brentwood Motors of Santa Monica in 1976, he kept the Jaguar for the next forty-two years. Treated to a replacement steering rack (1987), engine overhaul (1991) and respray back to its original British Racing Green hue before being taken off the road in 2006, the four-seater was bought by Jim Cronin of Classic Carriages some twelve years later who repatriated it. Only the saloon’s second UK keeper, the vendor has had the door cards and carpets sympathetically retrimmed and a retro-styled Bluetooth radio added. Featured in the September 2018 issue of Jaguar World magazine, this historic XJ6 S1 currently shows some 29,000 miles to its odometer. Currently undergoing a cherished number plate transfer, it is hoped that a V5C Registration Document for ‘FMW 567J’ will have been issued in time for the sale.

Registration No: FTX 99K Chassis No: S43077GT MOT: Exempt1 of c.664 Lotus-built Seven S4sBenefitting from a Craig Beck-tuned crossflow engine with twin 40 WebersFitted with a BGH gearbox, adjustable SPAX dampers and a stainless-steel exhaust systemThe chassis has been professionally refurbishedSupplied with a lightweight hardtop and roll-out tonneauTypifying the maxim that a whole can be greater than the sum of its parts, the Lotus Seven was introduced at the 1957 Earls Court Motor Show. Based around a multi-tubular spaceframe chassis, the aluminium-panelled newcomer was powered by a choice of Ford 100E, Coventry Climax FWA or BMC A-series engines. Popular with sporting motorists and club racers alike, the Lotus Seven evolved through Series 2, 3 and 4 guises before the design rights were sold to Caterham in May 1973. Launched in March 1970, according to the Lotus Seven Register, just c.664 S4 cars were built before Caterham took over production.'FTX 99K' is 1 of just c.664 Lotus-built Seven S4s and was first registered in October 1971, still retaining its original number today. Our vendor became the fifth owner some five years ago, when the chassis plate S4/3077/GT was confirmed to be unique by John Watson, the Lotus Seven Register's registrar. With a displayed mileage of some 66,000, in current ownership the Lotus has been extensively restored with the chassis refurbished by Neil Fowler Motorsport. The vendor has kindly supplied the following information, "During the restoration, the Seven benefitted from a fully rebuilt 1700cc crossflow on twin 40s, checked and tuned by Craig Beck Racing Ltd and measured at 125bhp with lots of torque!" In addition, there's a custom-built stainless steel exhaust manifold and silencer box, gearbox overhauled by BGH Geartech, new front discs and pads, a new race battery, adjustable Spax damper/spring platforms all round, custom-made wind deflectors, refurbished original seats and new belts. Gaining points in the desirability stakes, the vendor has had an S4 hardtop made from the original Lotus mould. A factory option priced at £65.00, only a few were sold in period, and this new top is fitted with a practical perspex opening rear window. The Lotus is also supplied with a history file, roll-out tonneau and a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Oliver Fernyhough-Martin oliver.fernyhough-martin@handh.co.uk 07483 361000

Registration No: BUW 155 Chassis No: 341734 MOT: ExemptDecidedly rare, UK-supplied Augusta Drophead CoupeSophisticated design with 1.2 litre OHV V4 engine, independent front suspension, four-speed gearbox, flywheelEntered from a small, private collectionArguably too uncompromising an engineer to be a truly successful manufacturer, Vincenzo Lancia imbued his first ‘small car’ design, the Augusta, with far too many advanced features for it to price competitive. Debuting at the 1932 Paris Salon but not entering production until the following year, the newcomer boasted unitary construction, independent front suspension, hydraulic drum brakes and a 1.2 litre OHV V4 engine. Available in saloon or drophead coupe guises (the latter penned by Vincenzo’s friend, Battista ‘Pinin’ Farina), the Augusta was capable of nearly 70mph. The choice of racing drivers Tazio Nuvolari, Achille Varzi and Luigi Fagioli thanks to its excellent road manners, the model won the Targa Florio outright and distinguished itself on the Mille Miglia. Issued with the London number plate ‘BUW 155’ during May 1935 and thus likely sold new by Kevill-Davies & March, chassis 341734 is reputedly among less than a handful of UK-supplied, factory-bodied Augusta Drophead Coupes to have survived. Entered from the estate of the late Garett Aherne, one of life’s true gentlemen, it was undergoing restoration when he died. Seemingly basically complete, the Lancia will require finishing / recommissioning prior to returning to the road. Rare as hen’s teeth, it has the makings of a rewarding project.

Registration No: 121 LUE Chassis No: LML 773 MOT: Exempt Long term ownership since since May 2003Meticulously maintained with a comprehensive history fileEnjoyed on many European tours with the AM Owners ClubRegularly serviced by specialists Roses Garage, Sandwich, Kent1 of 565 examples produced, finished in black over cream leather Introduced at the October 1953 London Motor Show, the DB2/4 represented a new breed of longer-legged, more accommodating Aston Martin. Panelled in lightweight aluminium over an advanced tubular frame chassis, it featured independent front suspension via a sophisticated trailing link, while at the rear a Panhard rod assisted radius arms in keeping the coil-sprung beam axle firmly tied down. Initially powered by a 2580cc version of the famous Willie Watson / W.O. Bentley designed DOHC straight-six engine, the adoption of a larger 83mm bore size saw capacity rise to 2922cc in mid 1954. The 2.9 litre unit was credited with developing some 140bhp sufficient for a quoted 120mph top speed.Coming from long term ownership, the vendor having acquired the car in May 2003, this DB2/4 is accompanied by a comprehensive history file which includes research into previous owners (eleven in total being identified to date) together with a fascinating record of works carried out (some even with mileage covered at the time) dating back to October 1954. Supplied new by dealer Martin Walters of Dover, whose plate remains inside the glove pocket, and assigned the registration mark TKM 13, the first recorded keeper was a John William Marsh. Seemingly retained by Mr Marsh until 1970, the car then change hands a few times in the early part of the decade before being acquired by a Richard Prentice in 1975 who kept it up until 1989. Sold at auction in 1990, it is thought a sum of c.£65,000 was paid by the new owner, Felicity Mary Henriques. Various mechanical works are recorded as being carried out during the mid 1990s including by specialists Tony Curtis and Aston Services Dorset, whilst the headlining was also renewed with West Of England cloth and new Wilton carpets fitted.In 1997 the car passed to Patrick Mulligan who confirmed to the vendor some major mechanical work was completed during 2000/2001 along with a respray in black. Around £15,000 was invested but only around 200 miles covered in his ownership. In May 2003, 121 LUE was purchased by the vendor in whose ownership it has been enjoyed on numerous events, including European tours, with the AM Owners Club and maintained to a high standard. Since acquisition the car has been regularly serviced by specialists Roses Garage of Sandwich, Kent. The vendor’s research confirms the engine number VB 6J 249 and chassis number LML 713 to be original. 1 of 565 examples produced, it is attractively finished in black over cream leather.

Registration No: 6333 UN Chassis No: 3023 MOT: ExemptAn older restoration that still presents wellOffered with a history file and current V5CIconic British Army military vehicle of the 1950sAfter the success of America’s Jeep in the Second World War, the British Army was eager to have a multi-purpose light truck of its own. In spite of competition from the Nuffield Organisation, Austin was awarded the contract to build 15,000 vehicles from a former aircraft factory at Cofton Hackett, on the outskirts of the Longbridge works, which was specially adapted for the purpose. Built from 1951 to 1957, Champs were quite unlike anything Austin had attempted previously. A four-wheel-drive quarter-ton truck, it utilised the straight-four, 2838cc Rolls-Royce B40 engine. The Rolls-Royce B-series engines were developed specially for use in British Army vehicles and, in their various guises, also powered the Daimler Ferret, Humber Pig and six-wheeled Alvis’. Although a civilian version of the Champ was offered with an Austin A90 engine, the vast majority were built for military use. 'Champ' was actually the civilian name; officially the military version was the less catchy ‘Truck, ¼ Ton, 4x4, CT, Austin MkI’. Of the military vehicles, almost all were used as either basic cargo trucks or wireless vehicles. They were a very well built, quality vehicle and very comfortable when compared to the Jeeps and Land Rovers of the era. Somewhat smarter than the usual ex-military vehicle, this Champ is understood to have been refurbished by a Rolls-Royce director in his own bodyshop. Still sporting an authentic bridge plate, sill-mounted shovel and NATO antenna mounts, the way in which British Army registration numbers were typically derived from chassis numbers suggests that the Austin bore the number plate ’30 BE 23’ whilst on active service. Treated to a new hood and upholstery as part of its prior restoration, the 4x4 is said to have been regularly serviced and maintained during the current seven-year ownership. Receipts on file relate to a new starter motor, carburettor repair kit and exhaust (2018), replacement fuel pump (2020, £195.85), servicing 2021 (£384.98) and brake fettling / fresh fluid (2024, £352.28). Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and history file. For more information, please contact: Luke Hipkiss luke.hipkiss@handh.co.uk 07886398226

Registration No: BEH 504C Chassis No: B9472725 MOT: ExemptUnderstood to be 1 of just 3,763 MK1 cars (the vast majority of which were built to LHD specification)Acquired by the vendor, an accomplished engineer, as a stalled restoration projectKnown to the Sunbeam Tiger Owners' Club for many years and pleasingly retains its original 260ci engineDiscretely uprated cooling system and 14-inch Minilite-style alloys but otherwise essentially stockCredible but unwarranted 73,000 milesAccompanying history file includes photos of the restoration / reassemblyThe Sunbeam Tiger was conceived in the West Coast of the USA and inspired by the success of the AC Cobra - the result of mating an American small block V8 engine with the British AC Ace. Rootes American Motors Inc. saw the potential for inserting the same powerplant - Ford's 4.2-litre (260 cu in) 'Windsor' unit - into the nose of the stylish but rather pedestrian Sunbeam Alpine. Carroll Shelby was duly commissioned to build the prototype and the rest is history. The basic layout of the Alpine was retained and the car featured independent suspension at the front using coil springs, and a 'live' axle at the rear supported by semi-elliptic leaf springs. The 164bhp engine endowed the newcomer with a top speed of around 120mph and a 0-60 mph acceleration time of under eight seconds. A total of some 7,085 Tigers were eventually produced. Among the mere 800 or so ‘home market’ Sunbeam Tigers, chassis B9472725 was granted the Stoke-on-Trent number plate ‘BEH 504C’ during June 1965. Showing just three former keepers to its V5C Registration Document, the 2+2-seater was acquired by the last of these in 1989. Taken off the road not long after, the Sunbeam was carefully disassembled pending restoration. Work progressed as far as having the original 260ci (4.3 litre) Ford V8 engine overhauled, the bodywork repaired and the four-speed manual gearbox refurbished. Well-stored over the next three decades, the Tiger was complete when the vendor took possession during July 2023. Receipts for work done were reassuring as was the state of replacement parts. An accomplished engineer, the seller set about reassembling the Roadster and ‘double checking’ the previous works. To this end, the fuel system was rejuvenated with a new pump and lines, the electrics and instruments tested, the braking system renovated (the front discs being uprated to Princess 4-pot callipers; a popular period mod), the engine tuned (complete with uprated Edelbrock manifold and carburettor), the ignition system renewed, the cooling system upgraded (high output water pump, increased radiator size, Revotec electric fan with manual override, larger mechanical fan and bonnet louvres) and the suspension treated to new dampers (x4) and rear spring bushes (fittings are in place for a Panhard rod and tramp bars but neither have been installed). Thoroughly stripped, the bodywork was painted Giallo Fly, sound deadening added to the floors, a fire extinguisher and new seat belts added and the replacement hood and screen professionally fitted. Strating readily and running well during our recent photography session, ‘BEH 504C’ has been known to the Sunbeam Tiger Owners’ Club for decades. Decidedly unusual as a ‘home market’ Tiger with matching chassis and engine numbers, it is offered for sale with an original workshop manual, Alpine owners’ handbook (for hood raising / lowering instructions), emergency tyre repair kit, correct jack and wheel brace plus assorted restoration photographs and invoices.

Registration No: P15 KUB Chassis No: JF1GM8KDGYG002623 MOT: February 2026Number 116 of the 1,000 'Prodrive One' Imprezas made and a highly cherished exampleWarranted c.23,275 miles from new with over 20 stamps in the service bookOriginal book pack, purchase invoice, MOTs, 2 spare keys and even fuel receiptsStored in a temperature controlled CarcoonBuilt at Subaru's Fuji Heavy Industries plant in Japan and honed by rally 'royalty', Prodrive, the Impreza P1 was always destined to become the hugely desirable modern classic that we rightfully see it as today. Built in a limited run of 1,000 examples, all were painted in Sonic Blue and using the WRX STi Type R as a base, Prodrive engineers installed the anti-roll bars from the European-specification Impreza Turbo, along with firmer springs and shock absorbers, to deliver a suspension set-up better suited to continental roads. They were powered by a revised version of the rally engine with re-calibrated electronics and developing no less than 280bhp, 69bhp more than the standard Impreza Turbo. The cars also featured ABS, as well as the Peter Stevens-designed anthracite OZ Racing wheels, front spoiler and rear wing. A very exciting find, this Impreza is number 116 of 1000 UK-supplied, right-hand drive examples of the 'Prodrive One' (P1). Sold new on 1st June 2000 by Threeways Subaru, Aberconwy, North Wales, it was enjoyed sparingly with less and less use as the years went on and as a result the odometer displayed just c.23,275 miles at the time of consignment. For many years, our vendor yearned for a P1 to add to his significant private collection, and subsequently, he purchased 'P15 KUB' from a reputable dealer whom he knew. Ultimately, it was the condition that got his attention! The car presents as you would expect for such low mileage; even the original factory wax coating is still visible in the engine bay. Among the original equipment, the jack, spare wheel and tool kit are all present, as is the original radio. We are informed that the original wheels are very clean, along with original brake discs and callipers, all are supplied with the vehicle. The P1 should be seen to be able to appreciate its overall condition, including the paintwork and the interior. Maintained in a temperature-controlled Carcoon away from salty roads and weather, it's hard to find an example of the Impreza P1 in today’s market, regardless of condition, so to find one so clean with this provenance is rare today. With soaring prices of Japanese Domestic Market cars, and some 22Bs heading north of £200,000 in recent years, this P1 may well be an unrepeatable opportunity, and is perfect for any discerning collector, enthusiast or purist. Currently part of a fantastic collection of pristine cars, the history file includes the car's V5C, the dealer book pack, with additional P1 literature, the service book with some 20 stamps, a number of old MOTs and even a small notebook logging fuel and petrol receipts. The cherished number plate reading 'P1 5KUB' is being sold with the vehicle.More information to follow. For more information, please contact: Baljit Atwal baljit.atwal@handh.co.uk 07943 584762

Registration No: 929 WML Chassis No: B321BR MOT: November 2025Lavishly maintained whilst in the ownership of a preeminent trauma surgeon for whom reliability was paramount (including the fitment of a factory exchange engine less than 10,000 miles ago)Significantly improved since last being retailed by renowned dealer Frank Dale & Stepsons for £51,000Detailed history file with service records dating back to 1965Worthy of close inspectionLaunched in 1959, the Bentley S2 and its sister car the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II were seemingly visually interchangeable with the outgoing S1 and Cloud I models. Although, underpinned by the same chassis layout as their predecessors (complete with independent coil and wishbone front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and all-round, servo-assisted drum brakes), the duo boasted an all-new powerplant. Rolls-Royce's first V8 engine since the Edwardian 30HP 'Legalimit', the 6230cc unit gave notable improvements in both power and flexibility. Suddenly, these wonderfully elegant if un-aerodynamic saloons were capable of close to 120mph via their four-speed automatic gearboxes. A strong sales success, especially in the USA, the Cloud II's introduction led David Ogilvy's advertising agency to produce the classic tag line "At 60 mph the loudest noise in this new Rolls-Royce comes from the electric clock".According to its accompanying RREC copy build records, chassis B321BR was completed with various ‘special features’ including: a steering wheel mounted headlamp dipping switch, B-post marker lights and electric windows. Supplied new via Jack Barclay Ltd to the prosperous textile merchant Herbert Kreuzer Esq on April 28th 1960, the Bentley initially carried his personalised number plate ‘TYE 11’. Registered to the London SW1 address of E.L. Windsor Esq four years later, the S2 subsequently belonged to B.D. Ely Esq and Leslie Wheeler Esq before being bought by the eminent orthopaedic and trauma surgeon Mr John Miles Kingsmill-Moore from Sunningdale Motors of Ascot on December 9th 1992. Initially entrusting the saloon’s maintenance to Derek Jarman, Mr Kingsmill-Moore then used marque specialist Royce Service & Engineering to ensure that the chances of him breaking down en route to an operating theatre were as minimal as possible. To this end the power steering and suspension were overhauled, the brakes rejuvenated, a replacement 'crate' engine obtained directly from the Crewe factory and the heater matrix renewed etc. Substantially improved since it was last retailed by the renowned dealer Frank Dale & Stepsons to a hedge fund manager for £51,000 in July 2021, chassis B321SR now rides on Avon tyres all round and has had its original Tan leather upholstery and Wilton carpets deep cleaned. Indeed, the hides have been so successfully rejuvenated by the Connolly Bros trained and time served craftsmen at Leathercare that they almost look to have been replaced. Having covered a mere 10,000 miles or so on its second factory powerplant (the associated cost of which totalled £14,194.72) and had far more spent on it than most surviving S2s, this delightful Bentley is worthy of close inspection as its detailed, chronological history file which lists maintenance as far back as 1965! A special car. For more information, please contact: Damian Jones damian.jones@handh.co.uk 07855 493737

Registration No: EYY 150B Chassis No: 11102120060643 MOT: ExemptA rare, UK-supplied 'Fintail' Coupe fitted with power steering and four-speed manual transmissionReportedly restored by renowned Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialist Frank Dale & Stepsons in the 1990sSubsequently used to help launch a Mercedes-Benz main dealer service centreDecidedly handsome combination of Dark Blue paintwork with Cream leather upholsteryAmong the 1960s most stylish coupesPenned by Paul Bracq and first shown to the press at the re-opening of the Daimler-Benz museum in February 1961, the W111-series 220SE Coupe was notably rakish. Powered by a 2195cc SOHC straight-six engine (120bhp / 151lbft) allied to four-speed manual or optional automatic transmission, the pillarless four-seater coupe boasted all-round independent suspension, disc / drum brakes and a 106mph top speed. Of the 14,173 Mercedes-Benz 220SE Coupes built between 1961 and 1965 just 776 were to right-hand drive specification. A fair proportion of these came to the UK (other RHD markets encompassing: South Africa, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Malta, Singapore and Malaysia etc). Supplied new to the UK and first registered here with the cherished number ‘WWL 10’ on June 9th 1964, chassis 11102120060643 remained on that plate for almost thirty-five years. Reportedly entrusted to renowned, London-based Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialists Frank Dale & Stepsons for an extensive restoration during the 1990s, an invoice on file shows that its straight-six engine and four-speed manual gearbox were thoroughly overhauled by Alpine Motors of Balham in 1999 at an indicated 80,694 miles. Subsequently looked after by marque specialist Steve Redfearn of Wimbledon, the 220SEb then relocated to Scotland where it was apparently used to help launch a Mercedes-Benz main dealer service centre. Purchased by the vendor from The School Garage of Whaley Bridge for £31,000 during August 2010 at an indicated 84,560 miles, he initially sent the pillarless Coupe to Mercedes-Benz of Ipswich for work but has since had it maintained by marque specialist Derrick Wells of Needham Market. Bills from the latter run into five figures and encompass attention to the subframe mount, shock absorbers (x4), brake master cylinder, front callipers, rear shoes, front anti-roll bar bushes, distributor, speedometer, temperature gauge, battery, washer nozzle and lights. The most recent, issued in March this year, was for a replacement starter motor and solenoid. Starting readily during our recent photography session, ‘EYY 150B’ remains, to our eyes, highly presentable. Complemented by Blue piping and Blue carpets, the Cream leather upholstery contrasts nicely with the wood veneers to the dashboard (although, those to the rear of the instrument binnacle have started to crack). Enjoyed by the vendor for a run to the Pyrenees and back as well as on more local jaunts, the 220SEb now shows an unwarranted 88,800 miles to its odometer. Still a seriously stylish machine, this W111 Coupe is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and history file.

Registration No: PJ 2716 Chassis No: OH10067 MOT: ExemptBegan life as a Supercharged model complete with factory T3 Tourer coachworkRemodelled in period with an altogether more attractive 'bustle' rear and bespoke hoodMuch improved during the current ownership via a thorough engine overhaul and suspension work etcPreviously featured on the front cover of The Automobile magazine and in 'Lagonda Heritage' by Richard BirdOwned by Lagonda Club stalwart W.J.B. Anderson from 1975 - 2007 and extensively restored in that time A development of the Lagonda 2-litre that was driven by Andre D'Erlanger and Douglas Hawkes to 11th place overall at the 1928 Le Mans 24-hour race, the 'Low Chassis' model was introduced the following year. Benefiting from a redesigned front axle (complete with rerouted braking system) and rear suspension spacers etc, its reduced centre of gravity resulted in notably sharper handling. Powered by a 1954cc 'twin-cam' four-cylinder engine that boasted hemispherical combustion chambers and inclined overhead valves, the 'Low Chassis' was reckoned to be good for 80mph (though this was somewhat coachwork dependant). Concerned that rivals such as Alvis and Sunbeam were beginning to offer cars of similar performance, the Staines-based company unveiled a supercharged derivative at the Brooklands Fete on 19th July 1930. While, the attendant demonstrator wore a Powerplus single-rotor assembly, the majority of 'blown' production cars were specified with either Cozette No.9 (4psi) or altogether rarer Zoller (5-7psi) units. Thus equipped, a 'Low Chassis' 2-litre was reputedly capable of 90mph. Underlining their performance advantage, the Lord de Clifford piloted one to 4th place overall on the 1931 Monte Carlo Rally, while St Albans motorcar dealer W.M. Couper used another one to capture a Glacier Cup on the next year's Alpine Rally. First registered in Surrey on January 14th 1932 (or so its ‘PJ 2716’ number plate would imply), chassis OH10067 began life as a supercharged 2 Litre ‘Low Chassis’ Speed Model complete with factory T3 Tourer coachwork. Surviving World War Two, the Lagonda had had its rear end elegantly reshaped and a bespoke hood frame made by the time that Dr Roger Kirkpatrick took possession in 1951. Custodian for the next six years, the anaesthetist is understood to have commissioned the neat luggage rack which remains in situ from the Bristol Hospital Workshop. Passing through the hands of Bruce Balcombe, Adair Robson, Ron Autiss, Adair Robson (again) and Roland Morgan thereafter, ‘PJ 2716’ came with two engines but had fallen into disrepair when Lagonda Club stalwart W.J.B. Anderson acquired it during 1975. Undeterred, he treated the 2 Litre ‘Low Chassis’ to a ground up restoration over the next few years (various photos relating to which remain on file). Contributing various articles to the Lagonda Club, Mr Anderson kept the Tourer for over three decades before selling it to Channel Islands resident John Refault in 2007. The latter had the bonnet and wings bare metal painted, the fabric body cleaned and the interior smartened (redyed leather, fresh carpets, revarnished dashboard etc) as well as fitting a new front valance, stainless steel exhaust and running boards. Returning to the UK mainland in September 2014, the four-seater entered the current ownership the following May for the princely sum of £83,000. Substantially improved over the past decade, more than the guide price has been spent on a thorough engine overhaul (including the purchase of a new downdraught cylinder head) plus attention to the rear axle (new half shafts), radiator, clutch, water pump, suspension and carburettors etc. The engine’s timing case is stamped with the number ‘2B 1068’ which is indicative of a supercharged unit. The vendor bought a period blower but did not reinstate it on the basis that the downdraught cylinder head gave improved performance but without the complexity of force-fed induction. Still highly presentable and, to our eyes, far more attractive than a standard T3 Tourer, ‘PJ 2716’ started readily during our recent photography session. Featured on the front cover of The Automobile magazine and in the book ‘Lagonda Heritage’ by Richard Bird whilst in Mr Anderson’s care, this undeniably handsome Post-Vintage Thoroughbred is worthy of close inspection.

Registration No: JTC 285 Chassis No: EXFM 6386324 MOT: ExemptReputedly allocated to Base Air Depot No.2 (Station 582 of the Eighth USAAF) which later became RAF Warton and RAF FreckletonThought to have had its hardtop crafted by the Seabees to protect against inclement weather whilst operating as a 'Follow Me' JeepUsed for a variety of film and TV workFirst UK registered on February 6th 1948 The story which has long accompanied this Jeep is that it served on Base Air Depot No.2 (Station 582 of the US 8th Air Force) during WW2. Forming the basis of both RAF Warton and RAF Freckleton once peace came, BAD-2 handled 45,000 aircraft movements during the conflict. A vital conduit for American operations in the European Theatre, it was home to three runways and 10,000 service personnel. Thought to have been a ‘Follow Me’ Jeep guiding P-51 Mustangs and B24 Liberators around the labyrinthine site, the Ford is rumoured to have had its unique hardtop crafted by the Seabees to provide protection against the English weather. Boasting the highest average age and pay packet in the American forces, the Seabees comprised architects, engineers and skilled tradesmen. Tasked with establishing outposts in active combat zones, the construction of a plywood and doped canvas hardtop would have been well within their skill set (though, the rear reading lamps are a nice touch). A hand painted Seabees logo adorns the 4x4 today and was carefully painted around during a colour change from grey to green. Rumoured to have been gifted to George’s Garage Ltd of Warton when the US forces withdrew, the photocopied buff logbook on file records the Ford’s previous colour, notes it was ‘ex-Government’ and shows that the four-seater has been road registered as ‘JTC 285’ (a Lancashire plate) using its non-standard chassis number since February 6th 1948. The same document suggests its official British duties were on behalf of The Ministry of Fuel and Power. Migrating south over the years, the Jeep has most recently been part of a large Somerset-based collection during which time it has helped to earn its keep via a variety of film and TV roles. Starting readily and running well during our recent photography session, it rides on comparatively new tyres (although the spare is emblazoned with ‘Ford’ and ‘Military’). Worthy of close inspection and further research, this storied Jeep is an absolute delight. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and sundry paperwork.
